Which One?
Omigosh! I got to Chapter 5! I'm so shocked at myself! Thanks for the reviews, every single one
meant so much to me! I'm so, so, so sorry for anyone who liked this FanFic because my updates take
too terribly long (stress, homework, curfew, too busy playing games.. the list goes on forever)
I very, very proudly present Chapter 5 (If you're interested, go back to the first sentence) to my beloved ones! Also... I just realized this story is spinning off the planned road and crashing into a forest of concrete trees.
A certain blonde, busty girl stared at the five animatedly excited females in front of her.
The one with the long white hair with her frinch bunched up raised her hand as though
she was a student and Lucy was her teacher.
"Mira-Jane, stop it," whined Lucy.
A grin turned up at the corners of her mouth.
"Sorry," she apologized, her eyes still sparkling. "But I do have a question," she continued, causing Lucy
to raise her eyebrows.
"WHAT?" she practically shouted.
Levy, Cana, Erza and Juvia stopped chatting frivolously and stared at her.
"I get to put make-up on you, right?" Mira-Jane batted her eyelashes sweetly.
"So, basically you wanna cosplay?" leered a drunk Cana.
Erza swatted at her face and grinned sheepishly. "Don't listen to Cana-san when she's drunk,"
Lucy blinked and groaned. "Just, just help me!"
The red-head nodded and turned to the others. "Alright guys-girls, sorry, we have a schedule, and we have
to stick to it. A mere second out and the whole thing is ruined. Got that?"
They all nodded. "First up, we only have two hours until seven. Mira-Jane, sorry, but you only get twenty minutes.
Juvia, you're on how to bump up on a guy." The mentioned girl blushed furiously.
"Levy, you're on alter-ego, Cana's just here to supervise the dressings, and I am just a supervisor in general,"
Lucy sweat-dropped. "Er.. isn't this.. a bit too.. much?"
Levy stared at her. "Nothing is ever too much, Lu-chan." she said seriously.
The others nodded in agreement and pulled her away to the Student Council prep room.
The moment they arrived, Mira-Jane revealed a square cabinet dedicated all to make-up of all sorts - even
deodorant and perfume for men. "This is for Student Council use only," grinned the girl.
"You're student council?" asked a startled Lucy.
"Yep, Assistant Secretary! Also, I help a little with treasury, you know. And when someone from student council
gets a meltdown I open this cabinet and.."
"Cut it, you can tell her later," interrupted Erza loudly.
Mira-Jane nodded, all the bubbliness and smiles gone from her face to immediately be erased with a steely set line
for a mouth and puckered cheeks. She grabbed blushers, eyeshadow, tweezers, concealer and everything
else in a jumble. "Um.. you will be able to... turn me back, right?" asked Lucy nervously.
"Of course, it's only make-up, it washes away." said the girl matter-of-factly.
"Which means," put in Levy, "If he asks you to go to the beach, you're screwed,"
Erza groaned and smacked her face. "Leave it to Levy to figure out the problems," she said.
Mira-Jane smiled a little. "I have a special make-up remover and a water-proof glaze."
"Oh dear. This is going to take a while..." sang Cana, doing the Egyptian bird dance.
A muscle twitched in Erza's head. "Cana...!"
Exactly twenty minutes later, Mira-Jane was finishing up on Lucy's hair, which was now curly at the ends and
teal green. Her face was fuller, her eyes were sky-blue thanks to contacts, skin milky-white with cherry-pink
lips. "You look gorgeous," praised Mira-Jane, as Cana's jaw dropped.
Cana moved forward with a weird dress. "Surprisingly, I found out Natsu was going to go to a cosplay convention
in town today instead of to the fields," she hiccuped. "So I brought you a couple of my old dresses too,"
"And who exactly am I supposed to be cosplaying?"asked Lucy, her eyes wide.
She had never viewed Natsu as the cosplaying type.
"You'll be dressing up as Kagamine Rin... yeah.. here's the wig, the shirt, the arm accessories, the headphones,
the shirt, the leggings and the shoes... oh I forgot the ribbon." Cana dashed out of the room.
The other girls forced Lucy into the costume and helped tie her teal green hair into a messy bun.
A few minutes later she had short and spiky blonde hair much like Juvia's own, headphones and the complete set.
"I got the ribbon," panted Cana, holding up a huge white ribbon headband. "Oh god," exclaimed Levy.
"So anyways, Rin Kagamine is a Vocaloid pop singer, but she isn't real, her songs are super awesome, and
her twin is called Len Kagamine." reeled off Cana immediately. "We can connect to you through the headphones,"
"Is this a goddamn spy movie or something?! This is just too much!" shouted Lucy, exasperated.
"I was just kidding about the headphones," chuckled Cana, again swinging a bottle of gin.
Erza checked her watch. "Levy, your turn," she announced.
The bluenette proudly stepped out and hip-checked Lucy jokingly. "Okay," she said seriously.
"About alter-ego, you can't act like Lucy that much, okay? Alter-ego is all about.."
One Boring Lecture Later..
"So that about wraps it.." sighed Levy. "Gosh, you are so stubborn, Lu-chan,"
Juvia yawned and snapped out of her trance. "Ne, Lucy-sama, are you ready for my section?"
"Call me Hinata Ayatashi,"winked Lucy. "It's the name of the weekend,"
The girl nodded and giggled with her hand covering her mouth cutely.
"So, Juvia is here to teach you how to meet him. Juvia must remind you that you do not know Natsu-sama yet, hai?"
said Juvia sternly. "Juvia advises you to go up to him and start a conversation about the convention,"
"..And after you've talking enough, Juvia's number 1 tip is to make sure to meet him again. Head him up a big way,"
"Gray-sama used to like Juvia.. so Juvia doesn't really know anything about him because Juvia avoided him,"
"Juvia wishes you good luck," she finished off.
Lucy smiled and gave Juvia two thumbs up. "Thanks, Juvia-san!"
Erza hip-checked Lucy again and checked her watch, again. "My chauffeur will give you a ride," grinned Erza.
She popped a hooded violet cloak onto Lucy and pushed her out of the room.
"He's waiting at the parking lot, 17C."
Then she slammed the door and locked it, leaving Lucy to trudge all the way to the parking lot alone at seven in
the morning on a Friday.
As she walked, she nearly bumped into Gray. Panicked, she wrapped the cloak tighter around herself and
hid her face with the hood as she walked by. She met up with the chauffeur, who told her to fasten her
seat belt and away they drove.
As they neared a large glass structure, Lucy pressed her palms and face to the glass and breathed out.
"Woah," she murmured. There was also a large sakura garden with wrought-iron, beautifully decorated gates.
The driver chuckled. "That's a private garden," he said.
Lucy continued to stare at it vividly, although she was terribly disappointed.
"It's private for the convention center, that is," continued the driver cheekily.
Lucy laughed quietly.
Then they stopped. "Here we are miss, good luck on that boy!" the old man turned around and winked.
The blonde made a mental note to give Erza a good kick in the arse when her mission was accomplished.
"You should go in." muttered the man, rolled up the window and drove away quickly.
She rushed to the door and the doors slid open automatically. There was a long hall filled with people and
even more doors, labelled to which convention it was holding. The place must be massive!
"Vocaloid... vocaloid... ah there we are! Vocaloid convention.. umm... how do I.." muttered Lucy to herself.
"The doors aren't open yet," grinned a boy behind her. Lucy, or rather, Hinata spun around.
"Thanks, ne~" Lucy allowed herself a small, cute smile. The boy was already in costume, and it looked awfully
like hers, except in boy form.
When she looked directly into his face, Lucy almost gasped. It was Natsu!
"Like my costume?" asked Natsu. "Len Kagamine! Where's yours?" Then he eyed my plastic bag.
"Oh, in there. Why don't you put it on now?" he asked. "I'm pretty sure it would go nice with your eyes."
Lucy blushed. "..they remind me of a girl a have a crush on." continued Natsu.
"Oh look.. the doors are open. You should go change. See you later!" the boy disappeared into the swarm of
cosplayers. "That was awfully weird.." Lucy blinked her shiny sky blue eyes.
Dressed up as Rin, she found herself aimlessly walking through the big area where the Vocaloid convention
was. The loudspeaker suddenly turned on, and high-pitched music was blared out.
"HELLO! ALL COSPLAYERS PLEASE GO UP THE STAGE FOR THE FIRST ROUND!"
And then, Lucy suddenly found herself being pushed up the stage.
"Be my partner?" someone tapped Lucy on the shoulder. Unsure, Lucy looked over her shoulder.
"Oh. It's you.. I never got your name," she asked sweetly.
"Natsu Dragneel! And yours?" Natsu shot back at her.
"Hinata Ayatashi~" replied Lucy calmly.
"Well, Hinata-san, be my partner?" Natsu smiled very, very sweetly, and looked at her
straight in the eye. "If we win, maybe after this we can grab a cup of coffee together?" Oh son of a *****! Was Natsu flirting with her?!
"Sure," grinned Lucy, and she put on an innocent face.
On the inside, though, Lucy was screaming like a madman.
Lucy stared into her cup of extremely sweetened java.
She was on a sort-of date with Natsu... as another girl. Honestly, could this be any
sadder? "Thanks for helping me snag the contest win," grinned Natsu.
"No problem!" she replied cheerfully. "But a couple more coffee dates like this,
I just might forgive you for swiping all the prize money!" Natsu blushed.
"How about tomorrow? There's a really nice coffee-shop next to that beach," he offered.
'Okay... shit's about to get rated M...' thought Lucy as she gritted her teeth.
"What's the problem?" asked Natsu.
Startled, Lucy looked up. "Oh, um, nothing, nothing!" she grinned sheepishly.
Then she twirled her teal green hair.
"Hey, can I ask you something? Like, other than the question that I'm asking you right now?" said Natsu.
"Mhm.." replied Lucy lazily.
"Do you know someone named Lucy Heartfilia?" he asked.
Lucy froze and started trembling. "W-why do you ask..?"
BOOM! Has Lucy been caught?! Sorry I didn't update for like, how many months. I was concentrating on practicing for a cooking contest. I won second place. :P
